On the smoke-filled battlefield, cultivators from both sects were still fighting to the death, with cultivators constantly falling. At first, they would show mercy, but after half an hour of fighting, they were almost all going for the kill.
Yunxia Sect had lost at least twenty cultivators, with countless disciples injured.
Zixia Sect suffered even greater losses, with nearly forty disciples dead and even more injured.
This was mainly because Lin Aoxue had previously defeated many of the opponent's top disciples, causing their average combat strength to fall below that of Yunxia Sect.
The Lingxi Realm disciples of Yunxia Sect were also matched against the Lingxi Realm disciples of the opposing sect, but their battle was far less intense compared to the main battlefield, mostly small skirmishes.
There were not many casualties, at most one or two disciples died, which was nothing compared to today's scale.
Ye Liuyun's pill effect continued, and the rain in the sky grew heavier. The cultivators from both sects battling in the rain finally noticed that something was wrong.
"It's so hot, damn it, what's going on? Why am I suddenly so restless and hot?" A Zixia Sect cultivator who had just knocked down a Yunxia Sect disciple, as he was about to finish off his opponent, suddenly had his entire skin turn red.
The heat within his body made him lose all desire to continue fighting.
"Eh? This feeling? No way, isn't this the ice and fire rain from a few years ago? Could it be, so hot, so hot, damn it, it really is that feeling." Those Yunxia Sect disciples who had experienced the ice and fire rain before cried out in alarm.
The previously serious and bloody battlefield suddenly became comical.
Half the people were shouting about being cold, and the other half about being hot. Yunxia Sect disciples reacted slightly less severely because most of them had experienced it once before, and with a first experience, resistance would naturally be higher.
However, the Zixia Sect disciples couldn't endure it. The male disciples started tearing off their clothes frantically within a minute.
The female disciples, on the other hand, were filled with shame and anger, losing all desire to fight. They weren't afraid of death, but being humiliated in front of so many fellow disciples and enemies was far worse than death. So, most of them immediately flew to the nearby dense forest to hide.
"Damn it, what on earth is going on, why is it hot and cold?" Those male disciples who had just finished taking off their clothes suddenly rushed to pick them up and put them back on.
This comical scene spread throughout the entire battlefield.
Even the Dao Palace Powerful Experts, those with slightly lower realms, such as Dao Palace Foundation Establishment Realm and Dao Palace Second Layer Foundation Establishment Realm, also felt the intense power of ice and fire.
"Isn't this the ice and fire rain from a few years ago? Why has it appeared again, and specifically in the battle zone? Does it feel like it's man-made?" The Dao Palace Powerful Experts of Yunxia Sect stared at the dark clouds in the sky and wondered.
The sensation of the rain was exactly the same as what they had experienced back then.
And just as they were observing the sky, the rain suddenly intensified.
"Not good, run! It's the Heavenly River Inversion again from last time!" The Powerful Experts and disciples of Yunxia Sect, seeing the rain suddenly intensify, all turned and fled, because they knew that the dark clouds were about to split open, and waterfall-like rain would soon pour down from the dark clouds.
The cultivators of Zixia Sect hadn't figured out what was happening, when in the next moment, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly unleashed a torrent of rain. This rain was extremely dense, and it was too late for the Zixia Sect cultivators to run. All cultivators in the battlefield area were thoroughly soaked by the pouring rain.
Even the Dao Palace Powerful Experts in the sky who hadn't reacted were instantly washed down from above by the rain. Such a massive amount of water would surely be incredibly heavy, making it difficult even for Dao Palace Realm Powerful Experts to resist.
"Ah... damn it, Yunxia Sect must have secretly used some trick! Why does this rain contain such intense cold and heat?" The cultivators submerged in the ice and fire rain cursed endlessly.
Because they clearly saw Yunxia Sect disciples fleeing immediately before the torrential rain fell, it was clear they knew the Heavenly River Inversion was about to happen.
The onlookers and passing cultivators were all dumbfounded. They had never seen such a bizarre event, and they also felt that Yunxia Sect must have been behind it.
"Is this some kind of formation? But when did Yunxia Sect set up a formation?"
"Who knows, but judging by the reaction of Yunxia Sect cultivators, they definitely know what this rain is all about."
While the passing cultivators were terrified, they were also guessing the reason behind everything happening before their eyes.
No one could have guessed that this was merely the effect of two pills kneaded together.
And the instigator, Ye Liuyun, was standing at the cave entrance, smiling as she admired her masterpiece.
"In this case, the sect should have won directly, and at least they shouldn't be able to fight anymore," Ye Liuyun laughed.
But just as Ye Liuyun was admiring her masterpiece, a pair of hands suddenly reached out from behind her and embraced her.
"Eh? Ao Xue, what are you doing?" Ye Liuyun was startled and quickly looked behind her.
Upon seeing, she saw Lin Aoxue, her face flushed.
No sooner had she spoken than a pair of small, fair hands silently reached for Ye Liuyun's chest.
"Ah!"
"Oh my, Ao Xue, what are you doing, let go!" Lin Aoxue's sudden action made Ye Liuyun gasp in surprise.
Lin Aoxue held her very tightly, and Ye Liuyun struggled several times but couldn't shake off the woman behind her.
"Liuyun, I'm both cold and hot. Your body feels like ice jade and warm jade; it's so comfortable to hold," Lin Aoxue said, her eyes a bit hazy.
One of Ye Liuyun's two pills was originally a Hehuan Pill. Although its effect was neutralized by the Ice Heart Pill, it still retained some of its Hehuan properties.
Furthermore, since only Ye Liuyun was here and no one else, Lin Aoxue didn't deliberately suppress the ice and fire power, but rather allowed it to surge through her body.
Lin Aoxue at this moment had no idea what she was doing; she only knew that the person in front of her could alleviate the conflicting ice and fire power within her.
Ye Liuyun was quickly dragged by Lin Aoxue's brute force into the cave.
At first, Ye Liuyun's protests could still be heard, but soon, they turned into muffled sounds and various strange noises.
The Heavenly River Inversion quickly ended, and the dark clouds gradually dispersed, but the ice and fire power lingering on the cultivators did not immediately vanish.
The situation of Zixia Sect disciples was even more severe; they ran naked through the battlefield like madmen, a sight that was anything but beautiful.
Throughout the surrounding forests, screams, curses, and whimpers of Zixia Sect female disciples continuously echoed.
The Yunxia Sect disciples were in a slightly better state, especially those who had been drenched by the ice and fire rain; they quickly suppressed the ice and fire power within their bodies.
"Even the heavens are helping us, Sect Master! Let's quickly go and finish them all off!" A Yunxia Sect disciple stood in the distance, looking at the chaotic Zixia Sect disciples with fierce eyes.
But Yun Yun shook her head. She took a step forward, looked at Zi Lan, whose face was ashen in the distance, and shouted loudly.
"Zi Lan, do you still want to continue fighting? If you keep fighting, all of your Zixia Sect disciples will be lost here!"
